Nexeon has the expertise and facilities to deliver performance enhancing technology

Nexeon works with both battery cell manufacturers and automotive OEMs to deliver a holistic approach to improved battery design

Innovate UK Funding

Nexeon and its partners have been awarded £7million in Innovate UK funding for a project to develop significantly better materials for Li-ion batteries – an essential step to achieving electric vehicles (EVs) with greater range.

Nexeon leads the silicon material development and scale-up stages of the project, while leading polymer company Synthomer drives the development of a next generation polymer binder optimised to work with silicon, and ensures anode/binder cohesion during a lifetime of charges. Nexeon and University College London (UCL) are jointly leading the work on material characterisation and cell performance.

The project has been funded as part of the Faraday Battery Challenge, which according to Ruth McKernan, Innovate UK Chief Executive: “… draws the very best of the UK’s world-leading research into commercial technologies, and puts UK businesses at the forefront of electric vehicle battery development.”
